About Praia da Caponga
Caponga Beach is part of Cascavel's coastline and preserves its link with fishing. The community is organized along the shore, where the presence of boats and services reflects the daily use of the beach. The visit can start in the public areas of the urban core and continue along the sand according to the day's conditions. Caponga has its own identity within the municipal coastline: it is not just the name for the set of beaches of Cascavel. Road access leaves the CE-040 corridor and reaches the community, allowing you to plan your arrival without driving on the beach. Allow time to observe the landscape and respect areas used by fishermen for working and storing equipment. Before planning swimming or a long walk, check the tide, sea conditions and local guidance. Bring sun protection and take your waste with you.
